Southwest bans robots after a humanoid takes flight
Southwest Airlines banned human-like and animal-like robots after a humanoid named Stewie travelled on a flight from Las Vegas to Dallas. The airline told CNN the updated policy was about safety concerns involving lithium batteries and was not triggered by any single incident.
